No
The summary describes standard medical imaging processing and visualization tools, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms. The "new and improved algorithms" are not described as AI/ML-based.
No
The device is medical imaging software that provides tools for reading, interpreting, and treatment planning based on medical images, not for direct therapeutic intervention.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the software is "intended to provide trained medical professionals with tools to aid them in reading, interpreting, and treatment planning." The phrase "reading, interpreting" directly implies a diagnostic purpose. Additionally, it explicitly states, "This product is not intended for use with or for the primary diagnostic interpretation of Mammography images," which suggests it is intended for primary diagnostic interpretation of other types of images.
Yes
The device description explicitly states "The SYNAPSE 3D Base Tools software is medical application software running on Windows Server 2008 installed on commercial general-purpose Windows-compatible computers." It processes images from other medical devices but is itself described solely as software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the software is for providing tools to aid trained medical professionals in reading, interpreting, and treatment planning using medical images acquired from various imaging devices. It focuses on image processing, visualization, and analysis.
- Device Description: The description reinforces that it's medical application software that processes and displays image data obtained from medical imaging devices.
- Lack of mention of in vitro analysis: There is no mention of analyzing samples (like blood, urine, tissue) or performing tests on biological specimens outside of the body, which is the core characteristic of an IVD.
The device is a medical imaging software intended for post-processing and analysis of images generated by other medical devices.

(a)
Identification. A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.(b)

Dear Ms. Peacock:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of
APR - 6 2012

medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket whitication. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed nredicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809), please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (301) 796-5450. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to
http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.
You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
